Bresser Messier N 150/1200 - 150mm Dobson

The planet specialist: calm and sharp image on a sturdy wooden mount!

The Bresser Messier N 150/1200 is a full-fledged floor-standing Dobsonian with a long focal length. The combination of 150 mm aperture and 1200 mm focal length (f/8) is made for detail: the Moon, planets, and double stars appear calm and high-contrast. Our choice for beginners who want to see planets in particular.

f/8: contrast and sharpness at high magnification

At f/8, eyepieces are less critical, and the image remains sharp even at high magnification. The 150 mm primary mirror gathers approximately 459 times more light than the naked eye. This allows you to see globular clusters and bright nebulae. For cloud bands on Jupiter and the Cassini division in Saturn's rings, this design is hard to beat in this price range.

Sturdy wooden mount

The wooden rockerbox stands on the ground and moves smoothly in height and direction. No tripod, no counterweights. The included lens solar filter also makes safe solar observation possible.

Included

• Newtonian optics 150/1200
• Wooden Dobsonian mount
• Eyepiece (1.25 inch)
• Seeker
• Objective solar filter
• Manual

Featured accessories

The Bresser Plössl 10 mm eyepiece (120x, 29 euros) is the logical first expansion. For planet nights, you can also choose the Bresser Plössl 5 mm (240x, 29 euros) or Bresser 2x Barlow lens (29.90 euros). A Bresser laser collimator (74.90 euros) and the Bresser carrying handle for Messier tubes (29 euros) complete the set.

For whom yes, for whom no

Who: especially those who want to see the Moon, planets, and double stars, and are looking for a stable, simple telescope. Not for: those who want a compact travel telescope; the tube is over a meter long. If you're unsure about the size, read the Buyer's guide for beginners or view all Dobson telescopes.
